Solid.

There is so much that is fresh and wonderful here.

I do think the structure could be improved, but that is minor -- the images and thoughts and mood are terrific.

edits - line 13 thought=though.

I suggest you capitalize the first person pronouns. "i" always seems affected to me. And besides, the poem is about "you", as you say, so "I" is a word of prominence here. the only time "i" feels right to me is to signify a loss or unimpotance of self.

oh, he's probably just a guy, you know (and you a girl). you think too much, and worry too much, but it makes for some damn good poetry -- so, selfishly, I ( or "i" ) hope you keep on fretting.

No vote left . . . turn it off turn it off turn it off (just practicing my mantra)

Wonderful

While I agree with TRM about the fresh imagery I can find little poetic device, here. It is clever and rewarding, and I thoroughly enjoyed it despite that lack.

Thanks, CC
